Fav airport?

I'm pretty sure there's one at Logan (Boston) as well ... and I know I've seen them at other US airports, too! 

That's good to know - I tend to travel through the same airports each time I go to the US (St Louis, Dallas, Houston, Little Rock and Albuquerque are the ones I've spent most time in) and I don't think any of them have a W H Smith - that I've seen anyway .

I'm trying to think of an airport I've used where I've never had a bad experience.  

Geneva Switzerland?    Or Bristol, UK?

I'm thinking you're more likely to like an airport if it's your destination, rather than your layover (although there's always immigration)  For instance, I've always hated O'Hare because I end up changing airlines there and running 30-40 miles from one terminal to the next while about to miss my connection.  One time I flew out of O'Hare without a connection though, and it was fine.

I hated Denver because for a few years it was my connecting airport and there seemed to be weather problems every single time.  I'm not saying that's the airport's fault, but it's no fun getting stuck halfway somewhere.  I've been snowed into the St. Louis airport for 12 hours with a toddler. At Detroit for some reason flights always seem to be cancelled.

Atlanta is mostly OK except for that dumb thing when you arrive internationally and have to retrieve your luggage for immigration and then put it back through baggage handling again.  Then again, Atlanta has been a destination airport for me and not a connecting airport.

I've never had any trouble with the Des Moines Iowa airport, but I don't think it's a connection to anywhere.  

Can i put in a vote for my local airport, Leeds/Bradford its small , but there are cheap flights to practically everywhere in europe. Manchester is great for long haul, and its train and public transport friendly.

Yes, we'll allow that.

Reminds me of Barra Airport, where the beach is the runway!

That looks so cool!

I hate Logan airport in Boston!!! It's so overcrowded, they built it in a crap location so they can't really expand. There isn't much to do there while waiting, not even in the international terminal, which tend to usually be good in airports I've been to. You also feel like you're going to land/take off into the ocean.

It does look beautiful when you're in the air though, especially if it's sunset.

That's what I like about it! 

I only know two airports, and don't like either one...LOL

On my end is the Detroit airport, and it's horrid. I'm always lost, can't find my way to the terminal, etc...lines are horrendously long, with all but one of the check in desks closed. I'm always worried about missing my flight there. My flight tends to leave at 9:30pm, and I've taken to arriving as early as 5:30pm...

Then on the other end is Gatwick. Okay, it's not bad, and I don't get lost there...great shopping etc for when I've gotten my luggage checked in while going the other way..but there's this IO there that TERRIFIES me...I'm always afraid I'll get her again. Going again for Christmas and I just KNOW I'm gonna get her again.../shudder

Of the two, I guess I like Gatwick least. That IO is just..scary

I always like the BA terminal at JFK, last time I went through travelling with my son the lady took me right through to the First class check in and I went through right away, and also, as I live close to Manchester airport, I am a fan of there.

I really like those airports because of the proximity to my destinations...I can leave home in Manchester at 8 am (UK time) and be at my parents house on LI at 5 pm (UK time) so its an easy commute really.

Hi racheeeee, May see you on your way through Manchester. That's my local also.

I HATE both airports in Chicago.  I fly a lot for work and avoid the Chicago area like the plague as I have never flown through Chicago without a delay.

I LOVE DC's national airport (DCA) because despite the large amount of people traveling through that airport, the lines are never long, it is easy to navigate and the metro (train) has stop 2 blocks from my apartment (the one in DC). 

Since we are talking about airports I will also put in a good word for St Louis' airport since on Saturday evening I left my work apartment, drive 12 miles, checked in, got through security and was sitting at the gate all within a half an hours' of time (and at christmas time).  Needless to say, I was a bit early. 

I really liked Keflavik airport for 2 reasons.  It is not busy at all and it has nice wood design, it's like walking into a fancy designer home shop. The Icelandic people know how to build an airport.

Baltimore-Washington airport is nice also because it is not very crowded but flies direct to Heathrow and a few other international destinations and it is half an hour from my folks house!

Same here, mattj74. But I heard that IcelandAir is stopping its flights from BWI.

I didnt realize people had any affection for airports 

I guess my favorite is Heathrow, it takes me back home when I need to get there.
Plus since they opened a Yo Sushi in T3, I am in heaven
The shopping is very good over all too.

Are they really?  I was wondering why I couldn't find any flights for next year going via Keflavik.  That's a shame, they sometimes had very good deals.
